PRESSURE GAUGE
H1988.338
Former Kalgoorlie Mining Associates property. Possibly a pressure vs time gauge: there is provisions for a circular piece of paper to be inserted on blank dial to record measurements. Has "BUDENBERG / GAUGE CO. / LIMITED / BROADHEATH" and "5755509" on rim of dial. Face of dial is hinged and opens . There are three holes at back rim, suggesting the dial can be fixed to a surface. Pipe with thread descends from dial, to be attached to the machinery requiring monitoring. Has "186" on reverse.
